The castle with a lot to offer: "HerrschaftsZeiten! Erlebnis Cadolzburg" from June 24, 2017 at the Cadolzburg - the new highlight of the Nuremberg Metropolitan Region

A powerful castle - the setting of the illustrious history of a ruling family that has achieved great success: this was and is the Cadolzburg. The rulers were the Hohenzollern family, who ruled over Franken and later Brandenburg, also gaining electoral dignity in the 15th century. Later on, they even became Prussian kings and German emperors.

The Cadolzburg derives its radiance not only from its role as the starting point of a significant career in the Holy Roman Empire - the impressive structure itself reflects this golden era of the Hohenzollerns. The new museum "HerrschaftsZeiten! Erlebnis Cadolzburg" of the Bavarian Administration of State Castles will make this time - the late Middle Ages - exciting and informative for visitors through innovative communication concepts. While walking through the castle, visitors can learn not only about the architectural history, wars and peace, daily life, and governing tasks of the princely castle residents. There is much to discover here through interactive and sensory means:

Visitors can experience the castle through their sense of smell, there are tactile stations, sounds and dialogues, vivid models, and invitations to try things out. Exciting or challenging games, medieval Hohenzollerns in their own words, and the jester Contz who guides visitors through the castle bring the Middle Ages to life. Visitors can also expect to see several original medieval artifacts such as swords, maces, or a magnificent treasure chest. Other objects were specially crafted for the museum based on extensive research in historical techniques, such as the gilded armor of the famous General Albrecht Achilles, or textiles dyed according to original recipes. The Bavarian Administration of State Castles also made significant contributions to experimental historical research, like creating a breastplate from boiled leather, in line with the ambition of creating one of Germany's most important castle museums.

The cultural communication of the Bavarian Administration of State Castles also offers a diverse program of accompanying events, making this exciting history even more intriguing - for the young nobleman as well as the castle enthusiast.

Not only the Middle Ages but also the Cadolzburg itself now comes back to life. After the extensive damage of World War II, original medieval rooms and successful architectural creations of the 21st century can now be experienced. The modern buildings completed in 2017 bridge the medieval era with our present time.

You can expect very special experiences here - it truly is THE CASTLE WITH A LOT TO OFFER.

 

 

Chaim is a tourist from Tel Aviv and is traveling through romantic Franconia as a passionate cyclist. He is also an avid chess player. In the evenings, he sits in his guesthouse with an old chessboard and plays games by himself. Because no one in the village plays chess. Even the innkeeper knows no one. Except for one. But he is named Adolf, and Chaim, being Jewish, is initially reluctant to suggest this. But the longing for a game is too great, and so Chaim agrees to invite Adolf. He comes, and a memorable chess evening begins. Because Chaim and Adolf have more in common than they initially think….

Successful author Stefan Vögel (Die Niere) has written an entertaining and above all thrilling play with CHAIM UND ADOLF about German history and its effects up to the present day. He tells two fatefully connected family stories from World War II and the repression of a succeeding generation of children and grandchildren. And he tells a unique love story that leaves future generations with many puzzles to solve.

The special twist: The Ansbach Theater performs this play in various Ansbach pubs, restaurants, or bars. The audience is part of the event.

Direction: Axel Krauße
Stage and costumes: Christina Wachendorff
With: Vladimir Pavic, N.N.
Approx. 125 minutes including a break

Remaining tickets may still be available at the box office or by calling 0981/9704014.

It rains on the piece of land. Three penguins learn about the flood and an ark being built by a certain Noah from a dove. Two of each kind are allowed on board. But they are three. To avoid leaving anyone behind, they decide to smuggle the third companion on board the ark in the refrigerator. And so they make their way on board, where a lot awaits them, and they ponder the big questions of the universe... If God sees everything, does He also see the third penguin?

Even without a large hall, there will be a Christmas fairy tale again in 2024, small but very fine: AN DER ARCHE UM ACHT. In Ulrich Hub's multiple award-winning play, it not only smells like fish but above all like comedy. A rarity in the dramatic literature for children and thus a fortunate occurrence. Ulrich Hub tells his story in wonderful scenes with pointed conflicts. His play is fun and clever. Look forward to a very different, charming Christmas fairy tale that transforms the theater behind the Iron Curtain into a winter landscape. Do as the penguins do and secure your seats quickly.

Direction and stage: Britta Kristina Schreiber
Costumes: Astrid Natho
Music: Paul Bießmann
With: Sophie Weikert, Anna Woll, Nicole Schneider; Jakob Maria Fecht
Duration: 1 hour, no intermission

It is raining on the plot. Three penguins learn from a dove about the flood and an ark that a certain Noah is building. Two of each species are allowed on board. However, there are three of them. To avoid leaving anyone behind, they decide to smuggle the third member of the group in a suitcase onto the ark. And so they set off for board, where they are in for quite a lot and confront the big questions of the universe... If God sees everything, does He also see the third penguin?

Even without a grand hall, there will be a Christmas fairy tale again in 2024, small but very fine: AN DER ARCHE UM ACHT. In Ulrich Hub's multiple award-winning play, it smells not only of fish but above all of comedy. A rarity in dramatic literature for children and thus a stroke of luck.

freely based on the book by Annegert Fuchshuber from 5 years old


"Der weite Weg nach Bethlehem"
Director: Bernd Schramm
Set Design: Claudia Kucharski
Music: Thomas Schönweiß
Performance: Claudia Kucharski


An old snail, who knows every furrow of the earth and in whose house the world's oceans roar, feels an unknown tug in her foot.
A longing she must follow. A star shows her the way.


An adventurous journey with many encounters begins:
She proves to the scientist that science is not everything. She convinces the robber that it is never too late to change.
She gives the shepherd hope and, with the ox, she forges plans on how they can change the world.
We learn that even difficulties can lead to something good. That it is indeed better to be who you are and that every living being is valuable.
When the snail reaches her destination, she can hardly believe that an infant is supposed to change the world.
But the child's laughter makes her forget all worries:
She has arrived.

Remaining tickets available upon request at 0981-2204041

Homage to Georg Friedrich Händel

Sopranists and counter-tenors: Thanks to the early music movement and historical performance practice, they have become indispensable in the classical music scene. The voice of soprano Maayan Licht reaches incredible heights and seems to know no limits. As a versatile interpreter, he is a welcome guest on the opera stage. Accompanied by harpist Joel von Lerber, Maayan Licht honors perhaps the most significant composer of the Baroque era, Georg Friedrich Händel, with an intimate homage. Exotic? Perhaps. Yet, so close to heaven.
Before the concert at 4 PM, Brigitte Fassbaender talks with Christiane Karg about gender roles and stereotypes on and behind the opera stage. Brigitte Fassbaender became world famous for so-called trouser roles: She portrayed male figures - such as Octavian in Strauss' "Rosenkavalier", Cherubino in Mozart's "The Marriage of Figaro", or Count Orlovsky in the operetta "Die Fledermaus". She is also known for her work on the major Schubert cycles, which had been reserved for her male singing colleagues until her interpretations. With a concert ticket, both the talk and the concert can be attended.

Doors open: 3:30 PM (talk) and 6:30 PM (concert)
